CVE-2025-15608 (GCVE-0-2025-15608)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-03-20 16:31 – Updated: 2026-03-23 13:01

Title

Buffer Overflow in Network Probe Handling Function of TP-Link Archer AX53

Summary

This vulnerability in AX53 v1 results from insufficient input sanitization in the device’s probe handling logic, where unvalidated parameters can trigger a stack-based buffer overflow that causes the affected service to crash and, under specific conditions, may enable remote code execution through complex heap-spray techniques. Successful exploitation may result in repeated service unavailability and, in certain scenarios, allow an attacker to gain control of the device.

Severity ?

7.7 (High)


                        
                          CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:H/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:L/SI:L/SA:L
